I agree --- Wladimir is certainly the more skilled fighter --- and has been the more dominant over the past 5 years.
It's interesting how people cite Vitali's *loss* to Lewis as reasoning why he is better than Wladimir...
mind you - a loss to an under-motivated, out-of-shape Lewis who definitely didn't put his best forward...
and yes - a *loss*
These same people never mention that Wladimir beat the hell out of Chris Byrd - *twice* --- yea - the same guy Vitali lost to.
their overall careers are quite similar - but there is no way that Vitali Klitschko belongs in the same ring with Wladimir Klitschko in 2009-2010.
Wlad would punish him severely.
Vitali has zero mustard left on his uncoordinated arm-punches --- but he does have tremendous heart.
Wlad would outclass him.
now Wlad v. Vitali in 2003? that would be exciting.
you guys can't be serious lol - this is trash-tabloid journalism. Far from credible and nothing will come out of this except anti-Haye fodder.
Amazing the hate this guy can generate.
Dont like Chisora, but hate to see him losing the shot as Wlad thats been snatched from him twice already.
Thats boxing I guess!
well Chisora didn't really do anything to earn that shot anyway...Wlad was electing to defend against Chisora...
I don't feel bad for him though - Chisora came into this fight in horrendous shape - knowing that if he lost his chance at a Klitschko payday would vanish.
He hasn't shown warrior-grade.
I had Kotelnik winning by 2 rounds
if you watched closely - every time they exchanged --- Kotelnik was the harder/more accurate puncher...he got the best out of 80-90% of all the exchanges...
Alexander had the advantage when he was jabbing and moving - but even then he wasn't scoring well at all - Kotelnik's guard was impressive.
close fight - but I had Kotelnik winning as well.
OK so Haye fuking runs from a man who can't knock anyone out, but he's not gonna run from Vitali? GIVE ME A ****IN BREAK.
Haye 'ran' from Valuev?
lol -
ugh - Valuev is 7'1 320 pounds ... you thought Haye should've stood his ground and just been a stationary target?
this is boxing.
using your logic - I guess Floyd Mayweather was running from Ricky Hatton
He did'nt hurt his hand dip shit. you actually believe every fighters BS? He realized 30 seconds in that he was'nt going to hurt valuev. If he would've tried to KO Valuev he would've gassed himself out and Valuev would've crushed him. I just can't believe these fans tha follow one fighter and not the whole sport.
^probably the first fan-boy who will be MAD as hell once Haye tops Vitali.
let's dissect this idiot's logic shall we...
he says 'haye realized 30 seconds in (to the fight) that he wasn't going to hurt valuev'
yet - David Haye is the only boxer to ever hurt Valuev and make him do the giant chicken dance.
k.
next - you allege that I follow 'one fighter' and not the sport?
what is this based on?
lol --- I've been an aficionado since I was 12 - and will put my boxing knowledge up against anyone's...
let's get back to reality ---
Vitali looked deplorable against Kevin Johnson - who was a scared fighter and while elusive - offered nothing back....
David Haye is an athlete - has real power (of which you're unaware of because undoubtedly you never saw him run through the Cruiserweight division) - and most importantly - has the desire and passion to become HW champion of the world....
respect to Vitali (but i'm actually a huge Wladimir fan --- now that's a guy who can beat David Haye) --- but Vitali's 'resurgence' is over-hyped - and he has no legs left anymore - throws all arm punches - and will not be able to hurt David Haye.
:rofl:
Did you not see Haye's hand? it was double the size of his other hand.
no - he didn't...
he didn't see Haye hurt Valuev in the 12th round either.
what does this mean?
he's very, very mad.
